 Posted: Sun Jul 29, 2007 6:49 pm Post subject: Missing kernel parameter (TKIP) |
 |
|
Hello all Gentoo fans!
When i try to configure and install wireless support on my HP nx7300 i seems to lack support for TKIP in my kernel. When emerging the ipw3945 driver it tells me that CONFIG_IEEE80211_CRYPT_TKIP is not set. I did 'make menuconfig' and tried to set the parameter but it's not there (only CONFIG_IEEE80211_CRYPT_CCMP). I tried to set it by editing the .config file but no luck 
I am using kernel 2.6.21-gentoo-r4
Someone who have a clue what's wrong ?

| Code: | Symbol: IEEE80211_CRYPT_TKIP [=n]
│ Prompt: IEEE 802.11i TKIP encryption
│ Defined at net/ieee80211/Kconfig:57
│ Depends on: NET && IEEE80211 && NET_RADIO
│ Location:
│ -> Networking
│ -> Networking support (NET [=y])
│ -> Generic IEEE 802.11 Networking Stack (IEEE80211 [=n])
│ Selects: CRYPTO && CRYPTO_MICHAEL_MIC && CRYPTO_ECB && CRC32
|
if you search on IEEE80211_CRYPT_TKIP (using / while running make menuconfig) you can see what dependencies must be satisfied for this option to appear.
Edit: Corrected, sorry, searched for wrong string ...

Thanks, it's our Belgian shepherd, a Tervuren. | Cerebro wrote: | | There is something that's missing with my installation .. feels like i miss a kernel patch ? |
Looks like if you follow the posts from here onward, there are a few posts essentially identical to yours. Also see the thread on intel's new driver.
